Subject: Halo 2 for Windows 7 will not autorun... HELP.

I just bought halo 2 today, after checking online to see if it will run on 64 bit windows 7. It does from what ive heard an ive got a top of the line gaming pc which means it will run. (it can suppotr gears of war and cod4).

i have no other games for windows game installed yet, and when i put halo 2 in, it doesn't read it, it does not apear in MY COMPUTER and it doesnt even auto run at all. i have no way of accessing the halo 2 folder/s.

Please help.
also, i tried it on my windows XP computer to see if the disc is a copy but it comes up with an error saying: 'the procedure entry point CreateProcessWithTokenW could not be located in the dynamic link library ADVAPI32.dll. but i reckon thats cos its XP and of course, halo 2 only works on vista.

So yeah, please help as soon as possible:)

Grenades are like RAM, you can never have too much

the xp problem is a error with your install or your 3d drivers
.

unless they made a specific game called halo2 for windows 7
your using halo2 for windows VISTA its pretty much completely designed to run on WINDOWS VISTA go download some cracks try and run it.

also a computer that can run GOW and COD doesnt make it a Top of the line gaming pc....just sayin

i listed cod4 and gears as examples cos they have reli high specs for it to run the best it can. and i soon realized its not the disc. for some reason my disc drive itself has packed up. when i put a diss/cd in anything like that. it doesnt read it at all. i checked to see if i have the latest drivers for it, i do and i havent done anything to damage it. so im nto sure.
